Leona Lewis

Leona Lewis rowdy evening

Leona Lewis disrupted a London stage show during a night out with friends.

The 'Bleeding Love' singer - who was reportedly drinking alcohol with pals - had been watching the 'Burn The Floor' musical at the Shaftesbury Theatre, when she amazed theatregoers during a break in the performance when she started re-enacting saucy dance moves from the show and shouting about how she had a crush on one of the show's female dancers.

A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "It was hilarious. The rowdy group brought plenty of attention to themselves by re-enacting the sexy lifts and moves from the show during the interval.

"Leona seemed very impressed with Venezuelan dancer Karen Hauer. She kept shouting out: 'She's so hot!' "

The 25-year-old beauty recently split from her boyfriend of 10 years, Lou Al-Chamaa, but has since been flooded with male attention.

She was spotted swapping numbers with The Wanted singer Max George, and went on a date with a mystery man to a zoo in Germany.

However, Leona's new party-girl persona has come as a surprise, as the pop star has previously blasted people who drink alcohol to have fun as having a "stupid mindset".

She previously said: "I find some people's attitude to drinking ridiculous. I think it's so funny that people think you have to drink in order to have fun. It's such a stupid mindset! A lot of my friends are like, 'I need a drink to get on the dance floor!' I don't need that 'help me to relax' thing. If I'm around my friends then I can really relax and have a good time, that's all I need. I don't need alcohol."

Beautiful Leona Lewis

Leona Lewis Quits America

Leona Lewis is quitting the US in a last ditch attempt to preserve her relationship with her long term boyfriend, Lou Al-Chamaa.

The X Factor winner has spent most of her career time in the United States and is in the process of recording her second album.

The 24 year-old was rumoured to be planning a permanent move to the US, where her first album did really well - but Lou was finding the strain of the long distance romance too much. According to the News of the World newspaper, Leona Lewis is set to stay in London for the sake of her relationship.

Ne-Yo Tells Leona Lewis To Tour

R&B singer/songwriter Ne-Yo has told Leona Lewis she should overcome her shyness and get out on tour. The 29 year-old American star had a #1 in the UK last year with 'Closer' and he is working on tracks for Leona and Mary J Blige.

The X Factor winner has yet to go on tour and Ne-Yo advised her, "In this business, people want to know you so you’ve got to be willing to give it."

He will be in the UK in June for his own O2 Arena shows and would love nothing better than to see Leona Lewis doing the same, "I hope she starts doing shows to build up her stage presence as it’s something you have to train for."

Leona Lewis: Turned Harrods Down

Leona Lewis takes a stand
*pic: www.idolator.com

Leona Lewis took a stand for her vegetarian principles and turned down a reported £1m ($1.7m) to open the Harrod's summer sale. The chart topping singer has been a vegetarian since the age of twelve and said she is,"totally against animal cruelty. I don't have clothes, shoes or bags made from any animal products."

The London department store was opened instead by Sex And The City star Kim Cattrall as Leona refused because the department store sells fur. According to the Daily Mail, Leona is reportedly in talks with Bhs boss Sir Philip Green about creating a range of non leather bags and shoes for Topshop.

The X Factor singer was also recently voted Sexiest Vegetarian and continues to enjoy success both in America and the UK.

Amy Winehouse: World's Best Selling Album

Amy Winehouse has the Best Selling Album in the world, so far this year. 'Back To Black' has sold 3.67m copies during the first six months of 2008. Total sales of the album has now reached almost 10m (9.78m) as Amy continues to dominate the tabloid newspapers with her private life.

Coldplay look set to steal her crown by the end of the year with 'Viva La Viva', the album went to #1 in the UK and US, selling 2.6m copies in just a few weeks.

Brits are dominating the world music scene this year and X Factor winner Leona Lewis has proved we can make it in America. Her debut album 'Spirit' has sold a staggering 2.4m copies and is currently enjoying chart success in America. The only American in the Top 5 is Jack Johnson in fourth with Welsh sensation Duffy beating Madonna at 5th place with her debut album 'Rockferry'.

Madonna: Hard Candy Goes Top In Ireland

Madonna has gone straight to the top of the album chart in Ireland with her much hyped new album 'Hard Candy', her single '4 Minutes' remained at #2 - still unable to remove 'The Galway Girl'.

The 'Immaculate Collection' album also jumped 57 places as Ireland got a touch of 'Madonna fever' on the back of 'Hard Candy', spending it's 202nd week in the charts at #43.

Meanwhile over in America, Leona Lewis climbed back up to #1 in the Billboard Hot 100, for the third time with her massive single 'Bleeding Love', and her debut album remains at #2.
